@ ARIN will manage whatever address space is delegated to it by IANA.

Will that be a /8 or a /16 ?

Have the applications been posted that ARIN submitted
to the IANA to obtain IPv4 Address Space and Registry rights ?

What form was used ?

Is the IANA accepting additional applications ?

Is there an application fee ?

That is good news....

You are obviously much more in touch with what is going
on with ARIN than most people...

Do you work for Network Systems, Inc. ?

@ Kim said this would get announced when they publish a revised proposal.

Sure...while they are waiting for the IANA, the IAHC, the ISOC...etc...
